In this session, you will learn about various technologies that will allow you to build client apps for multiple target platforms with a significant amount of code to re-use.

Organizations are embracing BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), and now we have to deliver SharePoint to these devices. And people don't just want a website any more - they want an app! This session is about building solutions for client devices. It's not just responsive design - we're going to look at technologies that allow us to build client apps for multiple target platforms with a significant amount of code re-use. We'll also use design patterns and data-binding on the client side to make our apps maintainable and scalable. And we'll look at tooling that allows us to do the majority of our work in Visual Studio 2013. This is a field where the technology is changing rapidly - almost daily. This session will help you get up to speed, or to keep up!

You will learn:

  • Mobile solutions and platforms for surfacing SharePoint content
  • Review the options for building SharePoint client applications on devices
  • Code and knowledge re-use across Web, SharePoint, Windows 8, Windows Phone, Android and iOS devices
